In Memory of Those Who Served

Anzac Day in New Zealand, 25th April. Always remembered and celebrated. This is the Garden of Memories which was the location for a big Service this morning as part of Anzac Memorial

I'm a bit embarrassed because I was unaware of Anzac Day. I had to Google it! I've realized that I need to broaden my horizons Big Time and see what goes on in the rest of the World! LOVE THIS PIC!

@wannabe I would have liked to cut out the house in the background but I haven't the apps!

[Maggiemae]

@thendrix58 don't be shy of other countries special stories! This is what we are sharing here on 365!

[Maggiemae]

@annbo its hard for us to comprehend the agonies that these guys went through! Remembering publicly is a respect!

[Maggiemae]

@marlboromaam Mags, it is becoming more recognised by the younger generations which is so good!

[Maggiemae]

@karenann You know, Karen, I hadn't looked at the lighting - it was when we could stop here to take these photos. The sun was in the west and just naturally highlighted this scene and from your comment, I thought, wow!

[Diana Moss]

It is so interesting seeing photographs like this, it makes a nice tribute

[Livia]

The light is great. A lovely tribute photograph!

[Margaret Pengelly]

What a beautiful shot and memorial, Maggiemae. Thank you for sharing as I had not heard of this day before.

[Pat Knowles]

Lovely memorial Maggiemae in a beautiful setting. Good too that it is celebrated so well in NZ & Australia, my daughter in law said all the shops were shut in respect in their town.

Very poignant Maggiemae - I regularly travel through the Dardanelles and past Gallipoli when I'm working.
